This fourth selection of studies by David Ayalon takes up the theme of the preceding volume, that of the opposition between the Abode of Islam and the external world, the Abode of War. Similarly, a number of the articles are concerned with the impact of outsiders, moving into the world of Islam, but others focus on aspects of the conflict between the two worlds, for instance raising the question of why it was only on the Nubian frontier that the early Arab advance was halted. The majority of the studies however concentrate on the Mamluk institution, especially in Mamluk Egypt, and carry forward the author's argument of the decisiveness of the slave institution in Muslim society, particularly this socio-military component which played such a critical role in both the expansion and the defense of Islam. Cette quatrime slection d'tudes de David Ayalon reprend le thme du volume prcdent: celui de l'opposition entre le monde de l'Islam et le monde extrieur, ou monde dela guerre. De faon analogue, un certain nombre d'articles s'attachent l'impact des trangers s'installant dans le monde l'Islam, alors que d'autres se concentrant sur diffrents aspects du conflit entre les deux mondes, soulevant, par exemple, la question quant la raison pour laquelle la premire avance arabe fut uniquement arrte la frontire nubienne. La plupart des tudes cependant, se concentrent sur l'institution mamelouke, plus spcifiquement en Egypte mamelouke. Elles poursuivent l'argument de l'auteur quant au caractre dcisif de l'institution de l'esclavage dans la socit musulmane, plus particulirement en ce qui concerne l'lment socio-militaire qui jout un rle primordial dans l'expansion et la dfense de l'Islam.
